I don't want to hear any negativity about He-man. I loved Masters of the Universe as a child, and besides, there is a new toy line and a new animated series of it coming out on Cartoon Network. I would definately be into He-man again.

BTW, who does Inspector Gadget and Dr. Claw's voice, anyway? I was a little surprised to find that Cree Summer did the voice of Penny.

Failed Scripts:

Shenzi: What do you expect us to do

kill Mufasa?
Scar: Not really

but an episode of the Teletubbies will certainly put him in mental shock.

Inspector Gadget was voiced by the person than played Maxwel Smart in Get Smart, the great Don Adams.

As for remaking Inspector Gadget? Nah, leave it as it is and show the old episodes on TV. I'm not so hot on the redoing of old classic series, not matter what genre they are...(Except in rare cases, like BGC 2040...)

I can see the political correctness people already lurking around... just imagine, in our day and age of gender equality and the like, I can just imagine the stir He-Man could cause... honestly, is a more masculine name even possible in the english language? But yeah, I watched it too and I had fun... BY THE POWER OF GRAYSKULL!!!!!!

Inspector Gadget is classic... all that I'd like is for them to retouch the film so that the colors and lines are sharp and bright, and re-release it like that... back in the day, he wasn't Inspector Gadget to me, we all called him Uncle Gadget...

NEXT TIME GADGET! NEXT TIME!!!!!!!!
...that villain epitomized the never seen, never caught, shadowy evil overlord...

And btw, about Inspector Gadget anime-ness... I don't know much about Initial D, but I swear that the Gadget Mobile is a Hachimoko, the type car used by the main character for delivering tofu and racing...

You're all getting sidetracked here. This is about a GAME, not some movie or a new cartoon series. On top of that, some people have been asking for a He-Man game for years, but Mattel was always an ass about the license.

Actually, there was already a Masters of the Universe game starring He-Man -- read a bit about it here (lower than halfway down). Wonder how this game will be, though.

Yeah, remaking is a shaky issue. What might the marketing staff come up with?

Inspector Gadget EXTREEEEME!
(UWAAAAAAURRGH!!!)

Hell, they already brought out G.I. Joe Extreme, Grandia Xtreme, MegaMan Xtreme, Extreme Ghostbusters, etc. and given that a group even released Extreme Sports with the Berenstein Bears (Is nothing sacred?!)...

It would be horrible...

Speaking of Extreme......POWER EXTREME! Remember Centurions??? I loved that. I had all the toys and everything.....just like my GI Joe and He-man stuff....and my Voltron stuff. And my Thundercats stuff, I have the figures and the Thundertank....too cool. And I had the toy sword for He-man with the shield, and two different swords for thundercats...

"Not upset...just wierded out..." , posted Thu 16 May 07:01

As much as I am happy about younger generations getting exposed to older cartoons and franchise that we (children of the 80's/early 90's) were exposed to, I am a little upset at the trends of remaking old series, and whats more, making games off them. It seems like an elaborate scheme to pimp these franchises out only for money. Its just sad to me.

And in other news, another Inspector Gadget movie is being made, with the guy from 3rd Rock from the Sun playing Gadget (the one who received messages from the big giant head, he was also in other movies, I think McHale's Navy).

This is going to sound blasphamous, but I could see French Stewart working as Gadget... if it wasn't for the facted Don Adams is alive and in the same movie! why is Brain voiced by Don Adams? and why is Brain's VA (Frank Welker) left out in the cold?

If Adams was availbe for a crappy cameo/in-joke why not just make the movie a cartoon and use him as Gadget? Frank Welker and Cree Summer could probably be tricked into returning to a cartoon version as well. For shame Disney!

It's also a sign that companies are starving for new material, and when they come up dry, they take the easier route and remake an old series. Their stance is probably, "it worked before, we just tweak some things here and there and it'll work again!".

Biggest example of this would be Disney and their home video sequels. They're totally crapping on their classic films now. So sad.
